Student of the Month - November 2011

THE PATH TO RENEWAL

My name is Aidan and I am sixteen years old. I have been at Rawhide for two months. My favorite hobbies are working with animals, hiking and just being outdoors.

I really enjoy the classes at Starr Academy because all the teachers are great to be in class with. The classes are also interesting and fun. After high school, I’m considering joining the military or attending college. I would like to pursue a degree that would enable me to apply for a position with the Department of Natural Resources. I would like to work for the DNR because I love the outdoors and want to protect it for the enjoyment of future generations.

I would like to thank all the staff at Rawhide because each one of them is here to help us. I appreciate how friendly they are. Rawhide has really helped me with my relationship with my mom. Now we communicate better and our relationship is being restored. I have decided to look forward in my life and not backwards. This attitude has helped me make changes and be successful at Rawhide.

One of my favorite things to do at the ranch is to interact with the horses. It always makes my day better just saying hello to them and giving them treats. I also enjoy the Beat the Heat class when we are working on the race car. I am very thankful for my time at Rawhide and for the help I have received to make positive changes in my life.
